The NZ Antarctic Heritage Trust has spent 10 years saving the huts of the early explorers Robert Scott and Ernest Shackleton. This video is about the work involved, and the huge effort that went into preserving these pieces of Antarctic History.

Camera mounted to a post set in the ice for part of 4 month long time-lapse project. Recording changes in the sea ice pressure ridges in front of Scott Base in temperatures down to about -60C ambient. Despite the wrappings, snow was still driven inside the camera and packed solid in the compact flash and battery compartments.

The full moon about to pass behind Mount Discovery as seen from Black Island in April. This photo was taken a few days before the sun disappeared below the horizon for the winter. The sunlight only just hitting the top half of Mount Discovery.
